Judd | Marfa Exhibition @ Watarium Museum of Contemporary Art
Summary
The Watarium Museum of Contemporary Art is holding the "Judd | Marfa Exhibition" from February 15 to June 7, 2026, focusing on Donald Judd's practice centered around Marfa, Texas. The exhibition sheds light on Judd's transition from New York to Marfa in the 1970s, where he transformed buildings into spaces for living and creation, culminating in the establishment of the Chinati Foundation to permanently display his work alongside pieces by artists like Dan Flavin and John Chamberlain. The show features early paintings from the 1950s, three-dimensional works from the 1960s to the 1990s, and drawings, plans, and materials related to the spaces Judd created in Marfa, emphasizing his belief in the integrity of art and exhibition. A documentary section on the 1978 "Judd Exhibition" in Japan, organized by the museum's founder, will also be included, alongside a symposium on Judd on the opening day.
